My favorite time of the year is the wonderful privilege to celebrate Easter.  I contemplate the marvelous grace that God gave us through His Son.  He sent His very own Son, who would come in human flesh and experience all the travail that this life has to offer.  To have His human flesh beaten, spit upon, and to be crucified is almost too much to comprehend.  I consider that He went through all this for me.  It is my favorite time of the year to praise my Savior for His unspeakable gift.  This past week I had the wonderful privilege to visit the Holy Land.  Our church is so incredible and loving to have done this for Belyn and me.  Words cannot express how much their sending us to the Holy Land has changed our lives.  One of the ways was to be there on the side of hill in the Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus prayed as He overlooked the city of Jerusalem.  As I said Sunday, he could have called 12 legions of angels but He did not so that I could have my sin debt forgiven.  Oh what a Savior!
